[QUOTE="Unofficial Gun Addict (UGA), post: 994307, member: 81139"] Yeah... I hear you. It sort of made me sick to my stomach seeing all those dead calves after which I offered to help him clear some particularly ornery yotes that had take up residence in a field less than a mile from his home. Later that summer, my nephew and I went out and setup, only to have three pups come out of the sage... Just playing around and checking out the world. We debated on it for a good bit before we decided to take care of the problem. I'll be quite candid and say I didn't feel good about it, nor did my nephew, but it's hard to tell a guy you'll help him resolve a problem and then allow it to exist right under your nose. We did clear that den, and it hasn't been repopulated in the 2 subsequent years. I honestly haven't ever discussed it since... With my nephew, brother, son or wife. I can say that this type of job isn't for me though. Although I understand how Kinyon felt, I'm not the guy to take care of it for him. It was the last time we hunted his property. Perhaps if it was my animals those yotes were killing... I wouldn't bat an eye at putting down any yote that crossed my glass... But that isn't the case and it did leave a bad taste in my mouth. Killing young animals isn't my cup of tea... But I can understand it. If I told Kinyon how I felt... He'd say... What if they were rats... Or ants... Mosquitoes etc and would think I'm soft... So I just told him the den was clear... and that's been the end of it. [/QUOTE]
